HCWs are sounding the alarm about ICUs full of patients sick with flu
There’s much we don’t know (are immune systems suppressed? Are they sub typing for H5N1) but we do know that anti science rhetoric & dismantling of public health led here
Wear a respirator. Protect yourself & your community

LMAO, unelected bureaucrat Elon Musk accidentally admits that unelected bureaucrats who aren't "responsive to the people" are bad.
Fucking tool.

This is why we need to develop proper evidence-based policies and force them to endorse them. Our community and the general community of chronic complex illnesses deserve better as simple and basic human rights. This is infuriating @cancovsoc.bsky.social #LongCovid #CovidIsAirborne
This interaction will feature prominently in my next article about masks in healthcare.
I need all HCWs to understand the tremendous privilege and responsibility they have to their patients.
We are putting our lives in your hands. Your comfort or personal politics must be left outside the hospital

A Plea to Maskless Healthcare Workers from Vulnerable Patients
If you see a mask - wear a mask. Better yet - wear a mask all the time and show us you understand that we're still IN a pandemic. We are depending on you to keep us safe - please don't betray that.

Hello, my name is [Your Namel, and I'm a [scientist, researcher, concerned citizen, etc.] from [Your City/State]. I'm calling to urge [Representative/Senator's Namel to support NIH and NSF funding and to immediately reverse the Trump administration's decision to cap NIH indirect costs at 15%.
This decision will cause a massive funding shortfall at research institutions across the country, forcing layoffs, reducing support staff, and jeopardizing critical scientific research. Indirect costs aren't wasteful. They pay for essential infrastructure, maintenance, and support staff to ensure that research can happen. This sudden change undermines years of financial planning and creates a devastating budget crisis overnight.
NIH and NSF funding doesn't just support scientific progress— they fuel the U.S. economy. Every $1 NIH invests results in $2.46 of economic activity. NIH-funded research has led to significant breakthroughs that improve human health. In 2023 alone, NIH funding supported over 400,000 jobs and generated nearly $93 billion in economic activity. Cutting indirect costs will mean fewer jobs, fewer discoveries, and a weakened global standing in science and innovation.
Please publicly oppose this NIH policy change and work with congress to reverse it. I also ask that [Representative/Senator's Namel support sustained, robust funding for NIH and NSF to protect the future of American scientific research and its economic benefits. Can I count on them to take action?
Thank you for your time and for supporting American research and innovation. I appreciate your leadership on this critical issue.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:dcpvyzm4ou74j6zcz67il5fk/bafkreicfkiqfqxi6cmripgkhskinaatja6wsolmjc52ssuxqfr665satti@jpeg)

This is another test of what things people will fight or quietly accept.
Trump, Vance, and Musk are pushing to rehire a staffer who resigned after being called out for a social media account with a history of racist posts. “To err is human, to forgive divine,” Elon Musk said in defense of the move. No—it’s not err; it’s racism. No excuses.

Just in case you thought that removing DEI criteria would mean that everyone is competing equally: NIH is removing grad students from underrepresented backgrounds from the applicant pool altogether. Their applications will not be considered. Other students, not from these backgrounds, will be.
